Secondary ambrosia beetles in apparently healthy trees: adaptations, potential causes and suggested research

2001-01-01

Abstract excerpt

Some ambrosia beetles are primary attackers of healthy, living trees, but in recent years normally secondary species have been increasingly observed attacking living trees, either as exotics or in their native geographic ranges. We identified five factors that could underlie an increasing prevalence of attack by secondary ambrosia beetles on living trees: (1) early flight before the host tree has recovered the abi...
